BREAKING: Last night, the un-elected Senate parliamentarian ruled that a national $15 minimum wage cannot go forward in the COVID relief bill.
Women's Marchers know this is the wrong call — because a $15 minimum wage *IS* COVID relief. Now, White House and Senate leadership need to do everything possible to deliver a $15 minimum wage in order to give 27 million workers, the majority of them women, a raise.
That's why today, Women's Marchers are mobilizing to get that done, and we need you and as many people as possible to join us. We can't let Senate Republicans continue their brazen disregard for workers' lives, so we're planning an urgent, socially-distanced gathering at 16th and H Street NW, Washington D.C. at 2:00 p.m. to demand the White House and Congress to raise the wage.
The pandemic has disproportionately impacted women, low income people, and people of color. Raising the minimum wage *IS* COVID relief. We cannot allow Senate Republicans to keep stonewalling a better future for women and our families.
Thank you for showing up and showing out for women,
Women's March
